Watch a Rising Star Shred a Mandolin

A hat tip to undiscovered talent

Ladies and gentlemen, I present Jesse Stewart: a mandolin maven singing his much-evolved cover of Donnie Dumphy's "Cry Tunes." Stewart's psalm, commonly dubbed "Cold Beer," gained momentum on Reddit recently before spilling over onto Facebook and other social media. Best described as punk folk, the video has accrued over 550,000 views in a matter of days. Judging from the concert's quality of stage and video (and videographer), our singer's career has yet to receive the catapult it deserves. We hope this helps, Jesse.
